Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Bud did so many things for others and the community. But the most important thing was the love that he'd shown for his family. I'm so sorry for your grief. Let God's love support you today and in the days to come. 1John 4:9

To Bud's family:
Bud will be missed by those of us at HHC, particularly those attending the Parent's Association meetings. His work on behalf of his son and all the other individuals at HHC has been a blessing to us. You have our sympathy on your loss.
